Fit and conversion 444-544

posted by  someone claiming to be Barongrey on  Thu Feb 10 05:43 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Loads of horsepower aond torque are fun, and I've considered making some changes to my car, although I aleady have the B20 (and an automatic). Frankly, I like the way the car drives and handles too much to REALLY want to change things.

Perhaps if the engine should die, I'd take the Buick aluminum V8 from my Dad's old P1800s. But then, it would verly likely exceed 200 MPH and the car just isn't built to handle at those speeds. Between the boxy body and the marginal brakes, I'd be sure to be over my head a lot!

Would anyone be interested in seeing pics of the engine conversion he did back in the late 1970's? I need to go see him in a few days, so it wouldn't be a problem.
